Abstract: The spatial light modulator (30) of the DMD type having associated memory cells (10) with a single bit line memory read back architecture (54). The memory cells (10) include a charge equalization switch (50) comprising a transistor connected across the bit lines (16,18) of the memory cell (10). This charge equalization transistor (50) is momentarily turned on (T₃) to balance residual charge on the memory cell bit lines (16,18), after a write cycle (T₂) but before the read cycle (T₄). When the memory cell contents are subsequently read (T₄), the memory cell contents will not change state. A single amplifier (54) is connected to one bit line for reading the memory cell contents. The single bit line (18) memory read back architecture provides a more efficient circuit layout to the spacing constraints required with DMDs, consumes less power than designs with a differential amplifier, and additionally, provides yield improvements.

Abstract: Color ink-jet printing is accomplished by an ink-jet nozzle array configuration (32,110) which has an odd number of nozzles (34) that are uniformly spaced apart by two line widths (2V) such that naturally interlaced printing is accomplished when a print head (54) employing the nozzle array configuration is moved in uniformly stepped intervals. A color ink-jet print head employing the array configuration further employs multiple horizontally spaced apart instances (30) of the array in which each array ejects a particular color of ink, and the nozzles of each array are aligned in the direction of scanning to eject ink toward a common band of lines. A standard printing mode is provided for use with the color ink-jet print head nozzle array configuration that provides uniformly stepped band and line interlacing. Another printing method provides intra-line interlacing modes that further reduce printing artifacts by separating deposited ink drops in space and in time so that interlacing and ink laydown sequences are uniformly maintained. Yet another printing method is provided whereby printing is accomplished closer to an edge (142) of a print medium (56) than would ordinarily be possible with some prior interlaced band printing nozzle array configurations and methods.

Abstract: A thermally stable collagen gel is formed by the addition of small amounts of collagen to neutralised slightly cross-linked polyacrylic acid which has been neutralised with triethanolamine or 2 aminomethylpropanol. A typical thermally stable gel results from mixing 0.3 to 4.0 percent by weight of collagen and 0.10 to 0.50 percent by weight of neutralised slightly cross-linked polyacrylic acid in a water base. The thermally stable gels are useful in wound care management. Further, synergistic effects are noted by the addition of 0.5 to 3.0 percent by weight of natural gums, particularly those containing glucuronic acid segments. Gelatin, a partially hydrolysed collagen, behaves in a similar manner to collagen.
